Beyond Domination: Astrology & Kink with Indira Allegra

This episode is released with Venus’ conjunction to the Sun and square to Pluto in Capricorn, just a few days before the beginning of Scorpio Season and a new moon and solar eclipse in Scorpio. My guest Indira Allegra and I talk about themes of being swallowed and reborn, claiming personal power, and transforming fear. Indira Allegra is a social psychopomp accompanying people, places and non-human beings through cycles of death, memorial and regeneration. Their projects, performances and installations draw from an investigation of inner space, animism and the ritual, relational and performative aspects of weaving. Allegra's combination of past experiences as a sex worker, sign language interpreter, domestic violence counselor and yoga instructor allow them to work with the tension of human and nonhuman experience as creative material. Their work has been featured in ARTFORUM, Art Journal and Emergency Index Vol. 8 among others. Allegra has been the recipient of numerous awards including the United States Artists Fellowship, Burke Prize, Gerbode Choreographer Award and the Art Matters Artist2Artist Fellowship. @indiraallegra - IG To inquire about 1:1 sessions with Indira, please dm thru Instagram Indira will be facilitating a two-part Scorpio Season workshop with Embodied Astrology called Beyond Domination: Kink in the Glow of Vesta.
